Dishwasher versus dish washer, a manly man’s perspective

Image
I am a proud, domesticated man. I know my way around a washing machine. (By “a washing machine” I mean my washing machine. I do not know my way around other washing machines.) I know where to find virtually everything in Safeway, including canned coconut milk (ethnic foods), and I won’t hesitate to add feminine hygiene products to my cart if they’re on the list. I make homemade croutons (by toasting bread really hard). I wash dishes. My goodness do I wash dishes. I’m not just domesticated in that I’m able to swallow my manly pride and do certain unenviable chores out of a sense of duty to my family. No, I embrace it. It defines me. I have opinions , gosh darn it. I don’t put my whites in the dryer because they’re more apt to withhold stains. Instead I hang them on a clothes drying thingee, and if I’m feeling particularly domestic I will put said thingee in the backyard and watch the clothes blow gently in the breeze while I breath in pleasant wafts of fabric softener. (My whites ar...

Subject: Your source in Volgograd and Sochi I need one of those. Dear Friends, If you are interested to get a direct information from Volgograd, where awful tradegy had place some time ago, I would be glad to help along with my colleagues - photographers and writers. Will be glad to share a story and interview. HOWDY FRIENDS! Remember that terrible bombing tragedy in Volgograd, Russia? Y'all wanna pay me and my buddies for coverage on that? Seriously I will be legitimately and genuinely happy to share stories and interviews about this otherwise awful tragedy. In my opinion, the awfulness of this tragedy is counterbalanced only by my happiness at reporting on it. In the future, if you ever interested to have your source on Winter Olympic Games in Sochi, we will be glad to help as well. Even if you're not ready for a source at the Winter Olympic Games in Sochi this year, please keep us in mind for when the Winter Olympic Games return to Sochi in the future, i.e. ...

Alice in Wonderland (a.k.a. Albuquerque)

Image
“Where’s Alice?” That’s the question my wife asked me in a panic as we drove along Route 40 out of Albuquerque on our way home from an extended holiday vacation in Colorado. The Alice to whom she was referring was an “Alice in Wonderland” doll that nestled tightly in our daughter’s arms each night before her restless movements managed to release it from her clutches to the foot of the bed or, alas, the floor. For Christmas, said daughter had received dolls from the movie “Frozen,” which were currently occupying her time and which went a long way toward explaining her recent carelessness with Alice. “How should I know?” I said. My ignorance made me culpable, apparently, and it was decided by all the females in the vehicle that I must have let Alice fall out of the car while I was packing it BY MYSELF. I denied these accusations as the frantic car search continued, pointing out the many times I had saved babies—our daughters call their dolls babies—from tragic asphalt fates. I alwa...

Dad fails to charter unique code for unique girl

Last summer my wife told me to submit an application for our oldest daughter to attend a local charter school. I said, “ What ? She is like 3. Pretty sure we have some time.” She said, “Your daughter is 4. And we don’t have a lot of time. There is a waiting list.” “Is this one of those schools where there are yet-to-be-born children on the waiting list?” “Probably.” “Okay I will do it tomorrow. One question.” “What?” “What is a charter school?” My wife delved into some explanation that did not necessarily serve as an answer to my question. So I looked online. According to Wikipedia, “a charter school is an alternative education system where a school receives public funding but operates independently.” So basically … I still don’t know. It sounds like a charter school is a school that has its cake and eats it, too, and also we pay for the cake. Nevertheless, I filled out the application under the impression that the school would prefer a child who came from less than ord...

Caught in the Amazon jungle … of returns

Me : ( opens email, first message reads “Details on your Amazon order FDS436578”) Babe? What did you order on Amazon? Wife : Oh just some boots for the girls. Don’t worry though, they’re probably going back. Me : What do you mean they’re probably going back? They haven’t even gotten here yet. Wife : My mom is sending some boots for them.
